Why Your Donation Matters
Breast cancer treatment brings emotional and physical challenges, but financial burdens can make the journey even harder. 1 in 5 women will lose her job after diagnosis, and bills don’t pause for chemotherapy.
Pawsitively 4 Pink provides direct financial assistance during breast cancer treatment and for up to six months after, so recipients can focus on recovery and stability. Grants are paid directly to landlords and utility companies, typically $2,500–$4,500 per woman, and every dollar you give stays in Massachusetts. If you’re wondering where to donate to breast cancer support that stays close to home, or looking for the best local charities to donate to near you, supporting Massachusetts charities like ours keeps your gift working in your own community.
